Deborah Johnson:

The poet. What a pleasant surprise.
Deborah Johnson:
I saw your ad in the paper, lookin for a new speechwriter. I figured I'd better come lend a hand.

Well, that must have been a misprint. See, I don't write speeches, sister. I just get up on stage and speak truth to the people.

Oh, it shows. The lack of preparation, that is.
Fred Hampton:
It got you here.

Deborah Johnson:
I dig. Right on. But you were up on that stage using words, so... Maybe next time, choose em a bit more carefully, instead of tearin down the folk who you call yourself recruitin', just because they demonstrate a little Black pride. But just so you know, you are a poet.
